Omigod, Sorry to have resent this ;) I had some very strange things going on with my mail queue, and my clock was thinking it's 2019...! I did implement it with sysctl's and a circular buffer and had fantastic results. I was able to collect average service times and arrival times of memory

Can anybody help me with a project I am working on? I am trying to simulate different memory allocation policies for a discrete event simulation course. Being the guy I am, I decided to collect some real statistics from a real system. The difficulty I've encountered is that I can't find how to
